can confirm this works in v0.19.
these cheats reduce so many hours of worthless grind. that the game goes from "so grindy I refuse to play it" to bearable.
I had the same first impression, but actually this is a pretty nice game and not that grindy at all. Early on its quite difficult to manage everything and if you are unlucky you can get a pretty bad streak of negative event so it feels like you gain very little.
But if you focus and bring up the skills on your maids and clean and upgrade few key roams (i.e. laundry room, chapel so Beth can farm legitimacy, maid bedrooms so they always get back more energy) the daily tasks become much easier.
Then you can upgrade the lords room to get +2 for praise actions, then the laboratory so you can get +1 for praise and discipline actions for the week.
If you keep the maids mood in mind your praise and discipline actions will give you +7 progress instead of +1-2. Get everything to 150 pretty quickly.
Also using magic worth it. You have 100 Portal power to play with, getting legitimacy and gold via magic is very good early game.
Sure this is not a press control and skip everything until there is a scene type of game, but as far as adult manager games go this has a strong foundation.
It needs more content though, hope it wont get abandoned and they really expand on the game system so security, soldiers and whatnot is really worth to build up.
